Consider the Play-by-Post games on here. You can also try Facebook by creating a group to express interest asking your friends to share it. Offer help in introductions to the games and making characters. You may have to start as the DM, if you are not liking this though you can always consider introducing a round-robin style DM - use a standard module rather than a custom world and each player gets to DM a session as you progress through. Consider running some of the starter kits - smaller quick adventures that take the pressure off DMing and character making to just test out the game play right away - not everyone is going to like it, but those who do will probably get hooked and want more because D&D is one of those types of games.

If you find players but struggle to find a place to play then do it online through Roll20 or consider Virtual Tabletop Simulator (there are videos on youtube about this, amazing software if you can run it - available on Steam but cheaper than renting someplace which brings me to...). You can try local places that might let you rent spaces for cheap - a game store that has room will probably be your best bet. I do not know your age so if you're young and in school try asking the school of you can use rooms after hours as a club.

Look into the D&D Adventurer's League organized play program - it's designed so that you can just show up at a store or other public location, sit down with a group and play. The Wizards of the Coast website has a store locator so you can easily find the places nearby where you live. Also look online to see if there is a local Meetup group in your area

Don't give up! It's a great game and hobby - you'll find someplace if you keep looking. Good luck!

Your profile says your from Cleveland. Like Cleveland Ohio? If so, it's not such a rural city. I am almost certain that you can find a group. The hardest places to find a group would be those towns where there's 400 people, one stop light, and everyone knows if you missed church on sunday. I live in North Carolina in a town where we were super stoked to get a walmart a decade ago (My mom nearly lost her mind because it meant not driving 30 mins anymore) and there was a guy who played who lived right down the road from me. Like a 5 minute drive if I get stuck at every light.

This forum is a good place to start, the official facebook page could be another. Tell people that you know that youre interested and maybe one person will say, "Hey, you know I have a buddy who plays." The first group is hardest to find. But the above suggestions of local game shops is your strongest chance just because the likelihood of someone at a game shop playing DnD is like going to a concert and finding someone who likes music.

Welcome, don't give up.   Look at the advise given so far and reach out to stores,libraries, and the net to see what is out there.   Forex,  I run  a after school club in my middle school for students allowin g them to game.    Don't abandon hope!

If you haven't done so already, have a look or open up a post in the Looking for players/groups section of the forums.
Finding a group on EU time can be a bit of a pain (I know the struggle) but it's still worth giving it a go.

As others also said, have a  look in FB if there is already any roleplay group based in your area, or with members from your area, if not you can try to create one, and check out your local game store (I'd hope there is one, maybe more focused on comics at first look, but I wouldn't discard the option).
